As part of a mid-winter fire sale on word blends, we might examine bugglery. Part phonetic spelling perhaps, part mixmash with buggery, jugglery and thuggery? The first example shows itself on closer inspection to be one of those phony fool sweep sites, but the buggy text may be genuine nonetheless.

There’s a reasonable number of hits for the “buggler” spelling of “burglar”—some are in “dialect” fiction, but some appear to be genuine. Since a lot of the people who’d write “bugglery” would probably also write “buggler,” I’d guess that the only word in your list of influences above that would be really relevant is “juggler.” I tried looking for “mugger”>>”muggler,” but in a quick check found only one or two hits that looked promising. And then it turns out that in the subculture of geocaching (almost as bizarre and pointless a pursuit as eggcorn-hunting), a “muggler” is a non-geocacher who gives you a hard time when you’re looking for a geocache or trying to hide one.
